PREFACE. 



The apostle Paul^ in his Second Epistle to 
his beloved son Timothy, reminds him of the 
privileges he had enjoyed in early life amongst 
his pious relatives^ and rejoices that, under 
their instructions, he had been initiated into 
the knowledge of the Holy Scriptures, which 
are able to make us wise unto salvation 
through faith, which is in Jesus Christ. 

Religious parents, aware of the privilege 
of instructing their oiFspring in the lively 
oracles of God, will rejoice in any produc- 
tion which may assist them in this important 
and delightful undertaking, so that their 
children may know the Scriptures. Such is 
the design of this selection : and in order that 
it may be introduced into Seminaries and 
Sunday Schools as an introductory class- 
book, it is divided into short Sections suited 
to the junior classes. After the book has 
been read a few times^ the teacher may allow 
the pupils to repeat, alphabetically, such 
texts, with the references, as occur to the 
mind; thus the word will be committed to 
memory without the imposition of a task, 
and this method of repeating it will be con- 



iv 

sidered by the Pupils as a recreution rather 
than a lesson. 

When Christian friends meet in social 
company, a dumb spirit sometimes steals a 
part of their precious time, or some forward 
formal professor introduces a spirit of slan- 
der ; so that the lambs of Christ's flock, in- 
stead of being edified by the spiritual con- 
versation of experienced Christians, retire 
"wounded. To remove the former, and to 
prevent the latter, a few texts repeated al- 
phabetically round the company, will, 
through the blessing of God, expel the evil, 
and prepare the way for social spiritual 
communion, which, when judiciously con- 
ducted, is the nearest resemblance to Mount 
Sion — to the city of the living God — to that 
innumerable company of angels — to the ge- 
neral assembly and church of the first-born, 
we can enjoy in this our militant state. 
That the Eternal Spirit may accompany his 
own word with omnipotent power and gra- 
cious influence, so as to make many wise 
unto salvation ; and to comfort, strengthen, 
and settle the children of God, is the earnest 
desire and prayer of the most unworthy of 
those who can rejoice in the unchanging 
W ord of Jehovah.

of thee; but if thou forsake him, he will cast thee 
otFfor ever. 1 Chron, xxviii. 

And Asa cried unto the Lord his God, and said. 
Lord, it is nothing with thee to help, whether with

art our God; let no man prevail against thee.
